How-To-Use-Fastpass-Disney-World.Pdf t o S kip the Lines w How ith We frogs love skipping the lines, which is why we highly recommend using Disney’s FastPass+ service for your Walt Disney World® Resort vacation. The service, which fully launched in 2014 and replaced the original paper FastPass system, allows you to pre-book up to three rides, shows and character meet-and-greets per day at any one theme park. While three skip-the-line passes a day may not seem like much, it can be a huge time-saver, especially when you’re looking at a 180-minute standby line for a popular ride such as Avatar — Flight of Passage. This kind of time-savings (and meltdown-prevention!) can mean the difference between a good and a great trip for you and your tadpoles! Plus the little bit of pre-planning needed to pick your FastPass+ reservations can sometimes even serve as that extra motivation you need to get your Walt Disney World® Resort trip planning organized. But it helps know which experiences to book and when to book them. This is where we frogs come in. If you’re staying at a Walt Disney World® Resort hotel, you can make FastPass+ reservations up to 60 days in advance of check-in for your entire length of stay, up to 14 days. If you are staying KEEP IN off-site, you can make FastPass+ reservations up to 30 days in advance of each day of your theme MIND... park visit. And once you’ve used your advance FastPass+ reservations at the park, you’re able to make even more FastPass+ reservations same-day. In this guide, you’ll find all the details you need to know aboutDisney’s FastPass+ service to make your reservations. Plus you’ll find additional tips and tricks to help you make the most out of it! Before we hop to the details, let’s leap forward to talk about MagicBands. MagicBands WHAT ARE MAGICBANDS? MagicBands are rubber bracelets that contain an embedded RFID (radio frequency identification) chip and function similarly to physical park tickets (also embedded with an RFID chip). MagicBands are more convenient, because you don’t have to constantly search for tickets every time you enter a park, use FastPass+ or have your picture taken by a PhotoPass photographer. All you have to do is make sure that the Mickey head on the band, which contains the RFID WWW.UNDERCOVERTOURIST.COM 1.800.846.1302 PAGE 2 chip, touches the Mickey head RFID reader! For resort guests, MagicBands have even more functionality. They are used as room keys, and guests can associate a credit card with the band so that they can touch to pay for purchases at the parks using a pin. HOW DO I GET A MAGICBAND? Getting a MagicBands is as simple as using them. If you’re staying at a Walt Disney World® Resort hotel, all members of your party will be given MagicBands free of charge. You can even choose the color of the bands and have them shipped to you (not available to all countries), depending on how far in advance you book your stay. The MagicBands will serve as your room key and can also be used to make purchases at the resort during your hotel stay. If you do not plan on staying on-site, you have the option of purchasing the bands in the parks or at the Disney Store online (starting at $14.99 + tax) and linking them in your My Disney Experience account. DO I HAVE TO GET A MAGICBAND? If you are not staying on-site and choose not to purchase the colorful bands, don’t fret — physical tickets offer the same functionality as MagicBands. The bands are there for pure convenience and efficiency! We recommend using them, especially with a family or group. It makes it easier when entering parks or using Disney’s FastPass+ service. Mommy Frog loves that she doesn’t have to dig in the family backpack constantly! My Disney Experience WHAT IS MY DISNEY EXPERIENCE? My Disney Experience (https://disneyworld.disney.go.com) is the website you’ll use to make your FastPass+ and dining reservations. It is also where you’ll link tickets and your hotel stay (if you’re staying on-site). There’s also a mobile app you can download, which is handy while you’re in the park. You can link and manage your entire party’s plans in My Disney Experience, and you can see your PhotoPass or Memory Maker photos for download or purchase. How to Make FastPass+ Reservations Before the Trip HOW DO I ACTUALLY MAKE FASTPASS+ RESERVATIONS BEFORE MY TRIP? 1 PURCHASE TICKETS. We recommend purchasing tickets early enough that they arrive before your 60-day (resort guest) and 30-day (non-resort guest) booking windows open. These windows open at 7 a.m. EST and fill up quickly, so set a calendar reminder! Like Mommy Frog always says, the early frog gets the worm. 2 CREATE AN ACCOUNT ON DISNEY WORLD’S MY DISNEY EXPERIENCE WEBSITE ONCE YOU RECEIVE YOUR TICKETS (IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY). You’ll need to add the names of your whole party. You can add names for accounts you will manage directly, such as your children. You can also send an email invitation to connect with other friends and family with a Disney account in order to make reservations for them. 3 ONCE YOU AND YOUR PARTY MEMBERS’ ACCOUNTS ARE LINKED, LINK YOUR TICKETS. We find it easier to use the My Disney Experience app since you can actually scan your ticket number rather than having to key it in manually. All party members must have valid tickets linked to their account — even the tadpoles! WWW.UNDERCOVERTOURIST.COM 1.800.846.1302 PAGE 3 4 YOU’LL THEN BE WALKED THROUGH THE PROCESS OF MAKING FASTPASS+ RESERVATIONS. You’ll select your date and park, and then you can select FastPass+ experiences by times. • You can make three FastPass+ selections per day in advance for one park. (If you’re park hopping, we recommend you make reservations in your second park.) • Once you’ve made your selections, you can further modify times for those attractions. You can also swap or cancel those selections. How to Use FastPass+ At Walt Disney World OK, I’VE MADE MY RESERVATIONS DURING MY BOOKING WINDOW. NOW WHAT? Once you’re at the park, head to the attraction you have the first reservation for and go to the FastPass+ queue, which will be marked separately from the regular line. Tap your ticket or MagicBand to the Mickey RFID reader to enter the line (you should get a green light and a magical ding; there will be a Cast Member close by to help direct you). Be sure to pay attention to your reservation time, as you will only be admitted to the queue during your one-hour window! MAKING MORE FASTPASS+ RESERVATIONS Once you’ve used your first three reservations, you can then use the in-park kiosks or the My Disney Experience app to make an additional FastPass+ selection. After you’ve used that selection, you can make another and so on. If you have the app, we find that the best time to make additional reservations after your initial three is just after you’ve scanned your last FastPass+. While waiting to ride, you can check out what’s available and make your next reservation! FastPass+ Priorities WHAT RIDES AND SHOWS SHOULD I PICK? Magic Kingdom® Park does not have a tiered system. Here are the attractions and gic Kingdom Ma experiences we recommend prioritizing for FastPass+ reservations: • Seven Dwarfs Mine Train • Jungle Cruise® Attraction • Peter Pan’s Flight® Attraction • Enchanted Tales with Belle • Space Mountain® Attraction • Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin® • Splash Mountain® Attraction Attraction • Big Thunder Mountain Railroad® Attraction WWW.UNDERCOVERTOURIST.COM 1.800.846.1302 PAGE 4 Epcot Epcot® has a tier system for FastPass+.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. FUTURE WORLD(S): A Critique of Disney's EPCOT and Creating a Futuristic Curriculum by ALAN BOWERS (Under the Direction of Daniel Chapman) ABSTRACT In my dissertation inquiry, I explore the need for utopian based curriculum which was inspired by Walt Disney’s EPCOT Center. Theoretically building upon such works regarding utopian visons (Bregman, 2017, e.g., Claeys 2011;) and Disney studies (Garlen and Sandlin, 2016; Fjellman, 1992), this work combines historiography and speculative essays as its methodologies. In addition, this project explores how schools must do the hard work of working toward building a better future (Chomsky and Foucault, 1971). Through tracing the evolution of EPCOT as an idea for a community that would “always be in the state of becoming” to EPCOT Center as an inspirational theme park, this work contends that those ideas contain possibilities for how to interject utopian thought in schooling.

  • The Lost Voyage of Amazonia: Concept Proposal
    Concept Proposal A Senior Project presented to The Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies Advisory Board California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo On June 9, 2011 In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirement for degree in Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies By: Eric Davis Ryan Inouye Abstract Every year, Walt Disney Imagineering, the creators of the Disney theme parks, holds a competition called ImagiNations, where college students around the world design attractions to fit into the Disney theme park brand. To be successful in this competition, participants must be able to seamlessly mesh creative and technical elements. As students in the Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies (LAES) program, we felt that ImagiNations was a perfect way to showcase our talents in a major that combines both engineering and the arts. We then set about to create "The Lost Voyage of Amazonia," a fast-paced, hair-raising river adventure through the Amazon jungle. From our research on South American folklore, we created a deep, complex story that complemented our innovative ride system. We looked at new technologies not presently seen at any theme park attraction such as hypersonic sound. Keywords: Walt Disney Imagineering, ImagiNations, theme park attraction design ii Acknowledgements Thank you to Walt Disney Imagineering for considering our concept proposal for ImagiNations. Thank you to Douglas Smith for assistance in creating the queuing simulation model. Thank you to Dr. Michael Haungs for your input and suggestions in our initial concept. Thank you to Sterling Rose for visually brining our concept to life. Thank you to Dr. David Gillette for your knowledge and guidance in helping us see the project to fruition.
